For a marine bridge foundation construction, a large-circular-steel-pipe has been proposed for supporting vertical load and preventing water infiltration. However, a ship collision can adversely affect the structural stability. This paper presents a fundamental study on dynamic responses of the large-circular-steel-pipe by an impact load. In laboratory experiments, small-scaled steel pipe is installed in a soil tank. The soil height and water level are set to 23 cm and 25~70 cm, respectively. The upper part of the steel pipe is impacted using a hammer to simulate the ship collision. The dynamic responses are measured using accelerometers and strain gauges. Experimental results show that the strain decreases as the measured location is lowered. The higher frequency components appear in the impact load condition compared to the microtremor condition. However, the higher frequency components measured at the strain gauge located below the water level do not appear. For the accelerometer signal, the maximum frequency under the impact load is higher than that of the microtremor. The maximum frequency decreases as water level increases but it is larger than the maximum frequency of the microtremor. This study shows that strain gauge and accelerometer can be useful for evaluating the dynamic responses of large-circular-steel-pipes.

In the long span bridge construction, construction cost portion of large scale marine foundation is about 40% (KICTEP, 2007). In this study, designs for deep water depth large composite foundation of a super long span cable-stayed girder bridge of prototype were performed by three design methods (ASD, LRFD, Eurocode) and the behaviors of a large diameter drilled shaft were analyzed and the 3D numerical analysis was performed. As a result, the soft rock socket lengths in allowable stress design estimation method were the longest. The soft rock socket lengths estimated by the design approach 2 among Eurocode and the LRFD were similar. The longer the socket length socketed in the soft rock was, the smaller the axial force acting on a large-diameter drilled shaft head was and the smaller the settlement of drilled shaft was.

최근 건설기술의 발전과 함께 강재 케이블을 이용하는 시설물의 시공이 점점 증가하는 추세이다. 특히 현수교, 사장교와 같은 초장대 교량에 사용되는 케이블은 주거더 및 상판에 의한 하중의 대부분을 지지하는 핵심부재이다. 하지만 이러한 케이블 부재는 부식, 파단 등으로 인한 단면손실이 발생할 수 있고, 이로 인한 손상부의 응력집중으로 인해 시설물 전체의 붕괴로 이어질 수 있는 위험성을 가진다. 따라서 조기에 단면손실을 찾아 사고를 미연에 방지할 수 있는 강재 케이블 비파괴 검사 기술기반의 건전성 모니터링이 필수적이다. 이러한 효율적인 건전성 모니터링을 위해 스마트 센서를 활용한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있는데, 그중 대표적인 스마트 센서중 하나인 마그네틱 센서는 높은 신뢰도와 어디에나 적용 가능한 재현성 때문에 구조물 건전성 평가에 적용하기 유용한 기술로 그 적용범위가 선박, 항공등으로 점점 넓어지고 있는 추세이다. 마그네틱 센서는 그 적용대상에 따라 다양한 마그네틱 특성을 활용할 수 있는데, 최근에는 투자율 계측을 통해 케이블의 장력 측정이 가능한 Elasto-Magnetic 센서(E/M 센서)가 개발되었고 그 활용성에 대한 연구가 이뤄지고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 E/M 센서를 이용한 강재 케이블 모니터링 기술을 제안하고자 한다. E/M 센서는 본래 케이블의 장력측정을 위해 개발되었지만 본 연구에서는 강재 케이블 부재의 단면손실 검색을 위해 적용하였다. 제안된 기술의 실험적 검증을 위해 E/M 센서를 이용하여 4가지의 다른 직경을 가지는 강봉시편을 E/M 센서헤드의 1차 코일을 통해 자화시키고, 각각의 직경에서 출력전압을 2차 코일을 이용하여 계측하였다. 그 결과 강봉의 직경이 감소함에 따라 출력 전압이 감소함을 보였다. 반복실험을 통해 해상도 및 선형성이 확보되는 최적의 입력전압과 출력전압의 워킹포인트를 선정하였고, 선정된 조건에서 강봉시편을 일정 간격으로 스캔한 결과 단면감소에 따른 선형적인 출력전압 감소와 동시에 단면 변화 지점에서는 추세선에서 크게 벗어난 출력전압 계측값을 나타내었다. 본 실험을 통해 제안된 E/M 센서를 이용한 강재 케이블 모니터링 기술의 유용성 및 적용가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

Many countermeasures for local scour at bridge piers constructed on the river and sea have been developed and researched to protect piers against local scour. The most commonly employed method is riprap protection, which is sometimes required the filter installation between riprap and base layers. However, the construction of stone filters are really hard to perform in the field, require the high cost, or sometimes are impossible. The experimental modeling is conducted to analyze the riprap failure modes and the stability of riprap protection without filters based on the different approach velocity and riprap layer thickness conditions. Also, the stability index to evaluate the performance of riprap protection is developed using the experimental results. The cover and thickness of the riprap layer play a very important role in the stability and thicker riprap layers can prevent a total disintegration of the riprap layer effectively, especially due to winnowing failure.

High resolution satellite images have been used for building and road system analysis, landscape analysis, and ecological assessment for several years. However, in high resolution satellite images, shadows are necessarily cast by manmade objects such as buildings and over-pass bridges. This paper develops the shadow extraction procedures in urban area including various land-use classes, and the extracted shadow areas are evaluated by a manually digitized shadow map. For the shadow extraction, the Canny edge operator and the dilation filter are applied to make building edge buffer area. Also, the object-based segmentation was performed using Gram-Schmitt fusion image, and spectral and spatial parameters are calculated from the segmentation results. Finally, we proposed appropriate parameters and extraction rules for the shadow extraction. The accuracy of the shadow extraction results from the various assessment indices is 80% to 90%.

The optical fiber cable acting as a sensor was embedded in the underground research tunnel and portal area in order to monitor their stability and the spatial temperature variation. This system includes two types of sensing function to monitor the distributed strain and temperature along the line, where sensor cable is installed, not a point sensing. According to the results of one year monitoring around the KURT, there is no significant displacement or movement at the tunnel wall and portal slope. However, it would be able to aware of some phenomena as an advance notice at the tunnel wall which indicates the fracturing in rockmass and shotcrete fragmentation before rock falls accidently as well as movement of earth slope. The measurement resolution for rock mass displacement is 1 mm per 1 m and it covers 30 km length with every 1m interval in minimum. In temperature, the cable measures the range of $-160{\sim}600^{\circ}C$ with $0.01^{\circ}C$ resolution according to the cable types. This means that it would be applicable to monitoring system for the safe operation of various kinds of facilities having static and/or dynamic characteristics, such as chemical plant, pipeline, rail, huge building, long and slim structures, bridge, subway and marine vessel. etc.

Together with the trend of enhancement in domestic industrial development and economic progress due to import and export, the demand for construction of the roads, bridges, especially port facilities, and several coastal protection and ocean structures is increasing rapidly. MOMAF of Korean Government is driving construction cf 9 new ports and renovation cf the existing fishery ports. Among these structures most of bridge base, wharves, dolphins, quays, and jetties are being newly built cf steel or concrete pile. As the base, supporting bulkheads, and piles are underwater after construction, it is difficult to figure out the status of structures and not enough to get maintenance and strengthen the structures. Every year, moreover, these works suck the government budget due to higher incomplete maintenance expense for protection from corrosions cf structures and increased underwater construction period. For the purpose cf cutting down the expense cf government budget, it is necessary to extend the life cycle of the existing structures. Therefore, we developed a new method for maintenance of submerged structures near the waterline by allowing dry work environment with the floating caisson. The method shows easy to move around the working area and handle. It also showed not only a significant reduction of maintenance expenses and time for anti-corrosion work but also better protection This will be a milestone to reduce the maintenance and construction expenses for the shore and water structures.

As transportation systems for connecting lands and islands, oversea long-span bridges, underwater tunnels, and immersed tunnels have been mainly used so far. Submerged floating tunnels (SFTs) moored under specific water depth are one of the newest oversea transportation system. Compared to other existing systems, the new system requires relatively less construction cost and time. But, there is still no construction example. For reasonable design of the tunnel and mooring lines the rational structural analysis should be firstly performed. Unlike common transportation structures, the submerged tunnels are mainly affected by the wave, vary irregular excitation component. So, the analysis scheme might be difficult because of the characteristics of the submerged structures. This study aims to suggest the rational global performance analysis methodology for the submerged tunnels. Using ABAQUS the dynamic response of the experimental models studied by KIOST (2013) was investigated considering regular waves. By comparing the simulation results with the experimental results, the feasibility of the numerical simulation was verified. Using the suggested method, the effects of initial inclination of the tethers and draft of the tunnel on the dynamic behavior were studied. In addition, dynamic response of a SFT under the irregular wave was examined.
